Thanks for the well wishes....I have conceded that all I can do now is wait. I would say that if Birmingham and Cardiff are about the same- Cardiff is definitely worth it. I showed up at 15:30 because I had to make quite the drive and my appointment wasn't until 17:00. They saw me straight away and I was on my way back to Dorset in literally 15 minutes. Whereas Birmingham, I was there for a few hours- even though I had all of my documents scanned and I really only needed bio metrics done. Silly.
